Yeah, I know.  "B" means linear.  

But this is a weird Log pot specifically created for the Baxandall circuit.  Why would they do this?  My theory is, the circuit is so simple and beautiful, they felt it justified the custom tapers.  But you are definitely better off with LogA tapers than using a LinB taper.  

I should make that clear:  Just because it says "LogB", don't run off and put "B" pots in there, because those would be Linear.  You wouldn't be happy with how bunched up the action on the knobs will be.
